Child Life sat her down and they accessed chemo duck and went through all of it, while it was happening to her brother. <br /><br />She had gotten a little traumatized the week before with both parents and 3 nurses holding little brother down. <br /><br />So the child life people really used chemo duck to drive home that what was happening to him wasn&#39;t painfully it was just scary. She could see it all happening to the duck, and she is a hands on learner so that sealed it for her. <br /><br />She would stroke his hand and tell him, &quot;it&#39;s ok to be scared Josh.&quot; It was very sweet. Unfortunately her brother relapsed so we have been in chemo land for 2 years, but chemo duck still gets his chemo from time to time, and he often grows up to be an awesome doctor to her dollies and his stuffed animals.<br /><br />One of Josh&#39;s docs is a pediatric cancer survivor. So Chemo Duck follows in her footsteps.<br /><br />So I highly recommend getting chemo duck for the family, not just the patient. It could really help a scared little or bigger sibling too.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03269888889636331616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3017524307591200082.post-76590930644406660812010-09-17T16:49:18.058-05:002010-09-17T16:49:18.058-05:00I love your yellow egg!
